Zusammenfassung:	A solar module assembly is provided that can include a framed solar panel. The panel may include bifacial solar cells, a front facing glass cover layer, and a back facing glass cover layer. A junction box may be mounted over the back facing glass cover layer. In particular, the back facing glass cover layer may have a cutout portion through which conductive leads connect to the bifacial solar cells and the junction box. The cutout portion may be formed along an edge or a corner of the back facing glass cover layer. The frame may have a first flange member that extends at least partially over the junction box and a second flange member that extends over the front facing glass layer. The junction box and the frame may be attached to the solar panel and hermetically sealed using silicone adhesive material, for example.
